Critics are raving about this deliciously chilling new thriller from Scandanavian crime-writing sensation Camilla Läckberg.
Named by major media outlets, such as USA TODAY, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, as a main successor to Stieg Larsson, Swedish author Läckberg is on the rise. Her new novel, which The Washington Post has already named as one of their &;Ten Books We Love This Year&; and praised as &;richly textured and downright breathtaking,&; continues the story of local detective Patrik Hedström and his girlfriend, Erica Falck, the beloved crime-solving duo whose first child has just been born. But while they celebrate this new life, a suspicious drowning claims a little girl they knew well. As the murder&;s implications widen, Patrik&;s investigation threatens to tear apart the rural fishing village of Fjällbacka, where a secret lurks that spans generations.
A deeply satisfying third installment in her internationally bestselling series, The Stonecutter will establish Läckberg for the U.S. audience once and for all. As USA TODAY says, &;If you haven&;t yet read the equally entrancing Ice Princess and The Preacher, what are you waiting for?&;
